Ryder Cup 2025: How to watch, when are the match times?

The 2025 Ryder Cup begins on Friday, here is everything you need to know to watch the weekend of golf.

The Comfiest Golf Shoe That No One is Talking About

The Under Armour Phantom Fore deserves your attention.

This chunky, thick-soled beauty transforms Under Armour’s flagship training shoe into serious golf footwear. At $130, it delivers comfort that rivals shoes costing twice as much.

What Makes It Different

The game-changer? TPU midsole technology.

Last year’s Phantom 3 used EVA foam. Decent, but nothing special. The new TPU feels like adidas BOOST. Bouncy, responsive, and ridiculously comfortable. Think premium cushioning without premium pricing.

Built for the Course

The construction screams quality. One-piece knit upper with bootie design means the tongue stays put. No sliding. No adjusting mid-round.

Vice Pro Plus Versus Titleist Pro V1: Worth The Savings?

For a long time, I played almost exclusively with the Vice Pro Plus. I liked the feel, I trusted the performance around the greens and I was a fan of the price.

But with the release of the 2025 MyGolfSpy Golf Ball Test presented by UNRL, I was anxious to see the results of the Vice Pro Plus versus the Titleist Pro V1. The Pro V1 is the gold standard. It’s the control ball in every test we run and many golfers want to know if the Vice Pro Plus is a smart alternative or simply a compromise.

Me included.

The differences are subtle and which one is “right” depends far more on your game than the price or any marketing claims.

Off the tee

In the 2025 test, the Pro V1 was about one yard longer than the Vice Pro Plus at high and mid swing speeds. At slower swing speeds, the Vice Pro Plus was about four yards shorter. That’s hardly a noticeable gap.

How To Flight Your Wedges Low For Maximum Control

Just last week, a student told me that he “can’t figure out why my wedges are so inconsistent.” One look at his setup told the whole story — he had the ball positioned as if he were hitting a driver, with his hands hanging behind the ball, trying to help it up in the air.

The wind was blowing about 15 mph that day and his high, floating wedge shots were getting tossed around like beach balls.

Most amateurs think wedges are supposed to fly high. Sometimes, this is true. Sometimes, yes, but if you can’t hit them low when you need to, you’re giving away strokes every single round.

Why high wedge shots can kill your scores

Every golfer I teach makes the same assumption: more loft means the ball has to go up. They set up to their wedges the same way they would a 7-iron and then wonder why their wedge distance control is all over the map.

Recently, I had a guy come to me who was shooting in the low 80s. Although he was a solid ball-striker, his short game was costing him at least five shots per round. He said that when the wind would pick up, he’d have no idea where his wedges were going to land. He couldn’t hit it close on firm greens because his shots came in too steep.

Rory-Bryson Tension Sets Scene For Hostile Ryder Cup

Ever since it was announced that the 2025 Ryder Cup would be taking place at Bethpage Black, there was an incredible anticipation around how boisterous and rowdy the New York crowd would be.

Bethpage is, after all, where the gallery ruthlessly heckled Sergio Garcia as he waggled himself into a coma at the 2002 U.S. Open. It’s where the crowd turned on Brooks Koepka, rooting for a late collapse, as he stumbled home during his PGA Championship victory in 2019.

Can you imagine what the New York crowd will do when there is actually an opposition to root against?

And that opposition is Team Europe?

Even if tickets cost $750 at face value (they sold out in 48 hours) to push away some of the riffraff, you can’t stop New Yorkers from being obnoxious. I’ve dealt with enough entitled Yankees fans to understand that it’s an art form for them.

TESTERS WANTED: Bridgestone Prototype Golf Balls

Bridgestone Golf is putting the MyGolfSpy community on the front lines of golf ball innovation. Four brand-new prototype golf balls are in development, and Bridgestone wants your feedback to help guide their next release.

This is a rare chance to go inside the development process with one of the game’s top golf ball manufacturers — and it’s open exclusively to MyGolfSpy Forum members.

Testers will receive one of four prototype models packaged in plain black sleeves.You won’t know which ball you’ve received — keeping the feedback unbiased and performance-driven.The results you share will go directly to Bridgestone’s R&D team as they refine these prototypes for potential release.
